Which is your favourite quote from your religion's holy book?

By default or by design, each one of us has a religion with which they identify themselves with or are associated with, to say the least. Even more, there are those verses or quotes from our religion's holy book that we so dearly love or strongly identify with, and which we then end up fabricating at the core of our personal philosophies about life.

I associate with Christianity and The Bible, besides being a religious book, is a great philosophical book. Top-most in my favourite quotes from the Bible is, "...Abraham answered, 'Son, the Lord will provide.'"
What's yours?

 

My favorite bible quote is Luke 1: 37 "For with God nothing is impossible." I love this quote because it reminds that no matter how difficult things can get in life, nothing is impossible. It encourages me to overcome my fears and do what may seem impossible to many people.

 

My favorite quote is: "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him, shall not perish but have everlasting life." This shows that God loves us the most, in a way that we will never understand, with the purest love. This is evident by the fact that God loves his only son, Jesus, so much, yet he sacrificed him to save us humans, who are sinners- unworthy of his grace and love.

This quote should make us humans grateful that we were granted mercy, love and forgiveness from God and pass on these qualities to people in our daily lives.

 

Allow me to try and explain this quote in a few words (I think the whole Bible and Christianity is founded on this quote)...

For me, this response by Abraham when his son, Isaac, asked him where the sacrificial ram was so concisely espouses great FAITH in God and the need to keep HOPE alive even at the darkest hour.

Abraham was in deep sorrow, that God had commanded him to sacrifice his only beloved son [as a test of his faithfulness to Him]. Abraham was sure that, indeed, Isaac was going to die. But, Behold, Abraham witnessed one of the most prolific demonstration, in my opinion, of "the mysteriousness of God's ways."

As a people of faith, we are taught that in the most needy of our times, when all hope is but gone (at least in the eyes of man), we should remain faithful to God, we should not question His ways, as He works in mysterious ways; ways not known to man.

 

Mine is john 14 vs 6. It says; then Jesus answered and said, i am the way the truth and the life. No one cometh unto the father except through me.
